The real battle of hacksaw ridge in history was the battle of Okinawa, fought by Japan and the United States. At that time, hacksaw ridge was an ordinary hill on Okinawa, formerly known as Ryukyu. This battle is of great significance. The first reason is that Okinawa is Japanese territory, and the second reason is that on Okinawa, the bombers taking off from the new airport of the US military can be 100% full of bombs and then blow up Japan's strategic targets. The atomic bomb carrier B-29 took off from Okinawa Airport.
Code-named Okinawa Campaign? Operation iceberg? It was a battle in Okinawa, Ryukyu Islands, and the largest amphibious landing operation in the Pacific battlefield in World War II. The 82-day battle began in early April and ended in mid-June.
Because of the importance of fighting, the desperate resistance of Japanese soldiers was decided. At that time, the Japanese commander ordered in the pre-war mobilization that every soldier must hide himself and kill at least three American soldiers before committing suicide.
Japanese soldiers carried out this order quite faithfully, which dealt a heavy blow to the US military. The huge number of casualties made the Truman administration finally determined to use the atomic bomb.
At that time, all Japanese residents on the island committed suicide by jumping into the sea, and none survived. In addition, most Japanese soldiers were burned to death in personal bunkers by American firefighters or buried alive by American bulldozers because they refused to surrender.
The Battle of Okinawa was the last large-scale amphibious operation in the Pacific War, which sounded the death knell of the Japanese Empire. Less than two months after the end, Japan ate two atomic bombs and then surrendered.
Although many war movies look terrible, the actual battles in history are much more terrible and simply creepy, so everyone should create a peaceful society in order to live a better life.
